Both of these issues reflect my experience—joind.in feels “heavy” for a one-speaker monthly meeting, so that sounds like something some of us in our copious spare time /s should propose adding. A speaker database would be great. A sponsor database might also be useful, though I understand that it might be a bit touchy for some sponsors. It would definitely have to be with their permission to be added. -- Sandy Smith - http://musketeers.me/ php[architect] magazine: http://phparch.com/ @SandyS1
